President Trump
The White House

Dear President Trump,
I read about the Easter Celebrations
at the White House recently and watched a video that showed a clip of you
signing a child’s hat and, instead of handing it to the child, tossing it into
the crowd.
While that may seem harmless, after
all, the kid probably got his hat back, it isn’t harmless at all, President Trump. That is an unkind thing for
anyone to do, let alone the president of the United States.
And, while this may seem like
a small thing that I’m writing you about, the fact is, it’s not. As President,
you are a role model and a leader. You are perhaps one of the most powerful and
influential people in our country. When you’re a leader, other people look up
to you and try to imitate your behavior. And it’s not okay to do things like
that when you’re being looked up to and imitated.
A little bit of kindness can
go a whole lot farther than you think, President Trump. The situation with the
hat was very small in the grand scheme of things and probably only lasted a
couple of seconds, but there have been other instances of you being unkind and
inconsiderate to others. You have called women very nasty things before that
make me feel disgusted and horrified when I read them, for example.
It is time for you to start being
kind.
Sincerely,
F.
